Devices Beyond The ALD Demo Center

Assistive Listening Devices (ALD) that are available for evaluation in the chapter's Demo Center represent only a small sample of the commercially available products that you might consider.

If you are looking for additional device options, there are at least a couple of ways to find them online. Two of those options are presented below:

Option 1: At least one vendor, Diglo (previously Harris Communications), provides an interactive guide to help you find ALDs for your difficult hearing situations. Click here* to enter their website and scroll down the page until you see "Diglo Guide". Then start by clicking on the text-in-circles that correspond to your situation.

If you find a product on the Diglo site, you can purchase it there directly. Or if you prefer to purchase from another local or online retailer, you will have the product information that you need.

Option 2: Search online for ALDs. Open a browser and type in some keywords, such as "ALD hearing loss TV", "ALD hearing loss noisy situations" etc. The search will likely return a variety of results: products to purchase, educational articles, and, of course, Ads as well as results that are unrelated to what you are looking for. The search will not find all possible products but it will be a starting point for your investigation.


*If you select either Option 1 or Option 2, you will leave the VDC website. To return, just close that website's window.
